TL;DR: In this paper , a feedback control law is proposed to control the actuator's input current, to significantly attenuate the broadband vibration transmissibility from the base excitation to the bistable actuator mover.

TL;DR: In this paper , a global multidimensional constrained optimisation algorithm was proposed to increase the energy efficiency of a beam-based energy harvesting gravity-based device using an array of piezoelectric beams for wind energy applications.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors introduced the concept of periodic metamaterials to determine an optimal arrangement for performance enhancement of flow-induced vibration energy harvesters, and three two-dimensional metammaterial structures including four-interference, six-interferences, and eight-inferences cylindrical structures are computationally explored and discussed.
